JETGLAS RG2PDV50H*N

0.68 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
F

Grade F: where this UEF sits among the 414 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set

A gas tank, high draw pattern (a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap).

If you are checking what a JETGLAS RG2PDV50H*N uses, it is a gas tank water heater that uses 249 therms of natural gas a year at the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 11 therms below the class median of 260 therms across 414 models.


Energy use per year

249 therms a year

Computed by this site from the registry's UEF and the federal test's daily hot-water draw for this draw pattern. What it costs depends on the natural gas rate where you live.

That is below the median of 260 therms for the 414 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 164 of 414, lowest energy first.

This model: 249 therms

What these figures mean

The figure of 249 therms is computed by this site, not by the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 0.68 with the daily hot-water draw that the DOE test assigns to the high draw pattern. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure is natural gas only and holds only at that test draw. Against the 414 models registered as a gas tank at the high draw pattern, this model sits 11 therms below the class median of 260 therms. It ranks 164th lowest in energy use among 414, which places it in the second-lowest quarter of its class.

The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. The first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 103 gallons for this model, and the rated volume is 46 gallons. The registry data do not say whether that matches your household's real peak demand. A household whose use differs from the test draw should not expect 249 therms, because the figure applies only to the high draw pattern. It also applies only to natural gas; energy use on any other fuel is not available here. The selector by fuel, space and size covers those other cases.

The running cost is not written here. It depends on your state average residential gas price applied to 249 therms, and the price is not in the registry data. The cost calculator on your own ZIP does that multiplication, and the page on how the annual cost is calculated sets out the method. The gap of 11 therms from the class median of 260 therms is a difference in gas use, so its value in money depends on your rate. A modeled installed-cost range is shown in its own block with its source and date; it is not a quote. To compare this model with another of its class, find a same-class replacement by model number.
